The second The Good, The Bad & The Queen album has finally been announced – with the new record, titled ‘Merrie Land’, set for a November 16 release.

The supergroup – which is comprised of Damon Albarn, The Clash’s Paul Simonon, The Verve’s Simon Tong and Fela Kuti drummer Tony Allen – are finally following up their self-titled debut album, which was released back in January 2007.

The imminent arrival of ‘Merrie Land’ follows a few months after Albarn told Kyle Meredith With… that a new album from The Good, The Bad & The Queen would arrive before the end of 2018. Acclaimed David Bowie producer Tony Visconti has worked on the record.

The album’s rather quiet announcement was first spotted by the Twitter account @DamonUnofficial, which posted a screenshot of a small advert for ‘Merrie Land’ in this month’s issue of Uncut, which was published yesterday (October 18). See the screenshot below.
